Bobbin Lace Insertion

Cleveland Museum of Art

White bobbin lace with a repeating pattern of floral motifs and scrolling vines on a black background. The lace is long and narrow, with a scalloped edge at the top and bottom. The lace is made up of intricate loops and twists of thread, forming a series of interconnected flowers and leaves. The flowers have five petals and are arranged in a repeating pattern along the length of the lace. The scrolling vines connect the flowers and add texture and depth to the design. The lace appears to be hand-made, with some loose threads visible at the edges. The background is solid black, providing a stark contrast to the delicate white lace. The title is "Bobbin Lace Insertion".
